Lesco Renovator...Seed Rate Setting?

I just purchased a Lesco Renovator to go with my Ryan Mataway. The Mataway is still my favorite, but the Renovator may win me over. It is so easy to operate. I know the results from the Ryan area amazing and can go fast, but I'm still love the ease of the Renovator.

What seed rate setting do you use for Turf Type Tall Fescue? Obviously more is better, but seed is getting expensive like everything else. I have it set on "8" right now and do a double pass.

Are you overseeding, or doing bare ground? For doing bare ground, it should go down at 8# per M. I don't know what setting that is, but it should come out to that IN THE END. Now, by IN THE END, I mean whatever setting it calls for, you should cut that in HALF, and go over it twice (crosswise) for even coverage.

Thank you, Dad - for always being the dad that you were. You truly are my hero. You always were.

Yeah, THAT's definitely a consideration, too. If you're goig to slow the machine down, then you would have to back off on the drop rate, as well. I've never ran it slow like that, so I can't really speak for any ratios.
